Hi Ashesh,

it looks like installation of one of the dependencies is failing, but it's a little hard to say which one and why (at least to me). Maybe there's a buildout expert on the list who has seen this kind of traceback before and can provide help right away...

If not, could you provide us with a little more information:

• The revision number your mailman branch is at (type "bzr log -l1")
• Your default Python version (type: "python --version")
• If we're lucky, the tempfile that failed to be executed still exisits ('/tmp/tmpu69D_h', see the second to last line of your traceback) -- maybe you can post the contents of that file to some paster service and send the link. If it isn't there any more (most definitely after a reboot), you could run bin/buildout again and use the new file name from the bottom of the traceback.

Another idea: Have you tried installing mailman inside a virtualenv? Also: It looks like you're running the installation as root. It should work without root privileges.

One last thing: We're currently working on simplifying those complicated installation instructions (aka "create non-homicidal install docs" ;). So don't give up now!

Cheers, Florian
